Biography

Prof. Urrutia-Jordana earned her BA in Linguistics at the University of California, Berkeley, and her MA and PhD in Spanish Literature at Stanford University (1996). She has taught at the University of San Francisco since 1996 and has been a recipient of a Fulbright Fellowship to the Universidad de Salamanca in Spain.

Her first book, La poetización de la política en el Unamuno exiliado: De Fuerteventura a París Romancero del destierro, was published in 2003 by Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca. Since then, her scholarship has continued to focus on the 20th Century Basque writer Miguel de Unamuno, particularly his period of exile. She has offered courses ranging from the Golden Age of Spanish literature to the poetry and novels produced in the shadow of the Civil War and the era of Franco.
